Chapter 300: Explosion

Caught off guard, overwhelmed by it all.
And in this battle, the Xiongnu were directly attacking the city, they must have had some reliance.
This gave the Qin army soldiers a strange feeling.
As darkness fell, the sky was moonless. It was pitch black and impossible to see anything.
"General, the axle grease, torches, and brazier are all ready. It's pitch black out here. Should we light them"
"No fires are allowed. This is for combat use. The Xiongnu are skilled at ranged attacks. If our side is in the open and theirs is hidden, attacking from the shadows could result in heavy losses." General Zhao shook his head.
Actually, you can say that the combat effectiveness of any army would be greatly reduced at night. At this moment, the Xiongnu people, blessed by the Moon God, might even become stronger.
"Wait a little longer."
General Zhao felt a little uneasy in his heart. How come General Lü hadn't sent any news yet
However, matters concerning Fate are inherently difficult. Even if the Spirit Net couldn't be opened, it wouldn't be fair to blame the General.
"Report!" A messenger rushed forward. "Reporting General, the Fata has been activated, our army can now use the Qi Network!"
That's great!
General Zhao was pleased, "Sure enough, the General is truly a skilled commander!"
Such a big spiritual gap can be filled.
"Release the first wave of hawks!" General Zhao immediately commanded.
On the city walls, the wind camp's mechanism mages took out one by one the prepared [Mechanism - Flying Hawk] and released them.
Prior to the Qin dynasty, resources and spiritual energy were scarce. The manufacturing process of the [Organ-Flying Swallow] was incredibly intricate and thus, it was a highly valuable artifact.
Currently, the Jiuyuan War Fort only has 43 units. If they are not connected to the Spiritual Network, these aircraft will require a large amount of 【Spirit Jade] to operate.
The first wave of 20 Flying Tridents flew into the night.
And the Qin crossbowmen slowly loaded their light, short arrows onto the arrow slots.
The Feilian crossbow was imbued with the wood attribute spiritual energy, and the Fengying archers stationed at the Xun position automatically transformed it into advanced spiritual energy [Wind Spiritual Energy].
A night breeze ruffled their hair as the first row of archers stood silently, feeling the wind against them. Their eyes were fixed on the direction of the soaring hawks.
In the distance, a row of fire walls suddenly ignited. This was the warning signal emitted by the [Fei-Yüan] after the artificers had scouted ahead.
The mechanical hawk can only breathe fire once, and its mouth is a one-time use.
The lethality isn't great, but that's enough.
"Let go!"
At the frontline commander's command, the Wind Camp's front ranks unleashed a torrential barrage of light crossbows.
The Xiongnu army was severely divided between extremes, with light armored troops being the majority for raiding. Once they charged, they maneuvered like the wind and could wear down enemy troops and villages to exhaustion.
However, the Xiongnu heavy cavalry and light cavalry archers would not easily be deployed unless they believed they could secure a decisive victory.
The troops in front of me crossed the Yin Shan mountain range so quickly, they must have been mostly light cavalry. This round of over 600 meters of light crossbow arrows, while not necessarily overwhelming, should cause some damage.
Under the protection of the Moon Goddess, the young lion king's vision was exceptionally clear.
To be honest, he hadn't conducted any reconnaissance at all. The city before him was perpetually shrouded in mist, and he could only have his troops prepare for battle and advance slowly to within 1000 meters of the city walls.
He only now felt that, having arrived just a few days ago, bringing with him the card of a Hunnic single chieftain to besiege the city was perhaps a tad rash.
This is different from what the book taught. During winter, he received a constant supply of provincial taxes and labor contributions from the Labor Union. Moreover, the two families on the Mist City front line were well-organized, with complete facilities and infrastructure.
Now.
He discovered that fighting independently was completely different from what he thought, and his army corps cards totaled three.
{Hunnish New Moon Cavalry (6700)}, {Hunnish Light Cavalry (2100)}, {Hunnish Auxiliary Legion (5610)}.
After crossing the Yinshan mountain range, supplies began to dwindle. There were no established supply depots behind us, and no other means of replenishing our provisions.
His domain card came from the old man.
And he never mastered it, 【Greek City-States】 couldn't offer him enough contribution at all.
If it wasn't for the power of the Moon God, I estimate that we wouldn't be fighting yet. The card battle strength would have collapsed.
He is now in a precarious situation. If he fails to capture the city tonight, he will lose his supplies.
How do you play
There is no kingdom staff here.
The Lion King felt inexplicably troubled.
Have the crescent moon cavalry dismount, totaling 4,000 heavy infantry armed. Light cavalry flanking, charging head-on, will that be enough
Line, just like that!
I still have some divine power left, it should be fine!
Legion card, weaponize! 【Xiongnu New Moon Cavalry】 【Formation】 【Spear and Shield】 = 【Xiongnu Phalanx Spearmen】!
These Huns are formidable, but their heavy infantry still lacks weight.
Pike formation, shield wall!
This is the real deal!
Under the cover of night, these heavy infantrymen are believed to be able to reach the city's heart.
Suddenly, a streak of light flashed across the sky.
Flames shot out of the sky.
The Young Lion King tensed up, but he discovered that it was just ordinary fire, not any kind of magic fire.
It doesn't matter.
Next, thousands of crossbow bolts pierced the air with thunderous roars, covering the sky and shaking the earth.
"Legion, defend!"
The young lion king himself is protected by the moon's shadow, so he doesn't worry too much. However, he's quite concerned about his army getting stuck.
Arbalest bolts thudded against the heavily armored shields of the infantrymen.
The young lion king was overjoyed.
Light crossbow!!!
That's amazing!!
Indeed, heavy infantry cut through everything.
Just now, the gloom in my heart vanished. It's still a light crossbow here
That's not getting abused, it won't break your defenses
Then what are you worried about
"All troops, arms ready! Charge with me!"
Even the auxiliary troops were clad in heavy armor. To ensure the overall strength of the legion, King Lionheart did not allow them to scatter. The ten thousand strong legion surged forward like a wall.
The arrows did not come again.
The young Lion King led his troops, Card, and successfully advanced to a position about 100 meters from the city.
Haze dissipates
A menacing fortress suddenly appeared before the young lion king, who was startled!
This is an unprecedented architectural style, but undoubtedly a top-tier war machine.
Oh no, I underestimated it!
One should unify all the major tribes and then make plans.
He hasn't reacted yet.
A dull groaning sound surrounded them, the coarse hinges screeching as two massive platforms slowly inched closer to their unit!
Under the moonlight, the young lion king could see the warriors in their bright armor and the unknown siege cards above them.
"Retreat!"
But where is it so easy to withdraw the phalanx of soldiers.
A huge chord of sound suddenly erupted from above the platform!
My ears are ringing.
Is it a heavy crossbow!
The ballista and the wind-assisted heavy crossbow fire inflicted casualties even on heavily armored formations at close range.
"【Kame no Hazu】! 【Tsuki no Hoshigoto】!"
Young Lion Wang threw out two defensive cards in a row!
Heavy shield gathered, it has to be said, it still works.
The young lion king was breathing heavily, a huge crossbow bolt coming at him. Beside him, a Hun army soldier’s face contorted with exhaustion; he had been shot and fell to the ground.
The tortoise shell developed cracks.
Through the gap
The Lion King discovered that a platform had lowered in front of him, about 20 meters away, and a whole squad of heavily armed soldiers appeared.
Crouching in the front row, holding an unknown weapon.
The young lion's heart turned cold.
So close, just blend in together, wouldn't the ballistae on the platform above be useless Then
